IU's Bold Pursuit of Love in '21st Century Grand Duchess' Episode 2

IU Struggles to Win Over Byeon Woo-seok's Heart.

In the second episode of MBC's Friday-Saturday drama '21st Century Grand Duchess,' airing today (11th), Seong Hee-joo (played by IU) embarks on a bold mission to secure a proposal acceptance from Lee An-daegun (played by Byeon Woo-seok).

Previously, Seong Hee-joo, frustrated by her family's demands to marry an unwanted suitor, decided to choose her own partner and set her sights on Lee An-daegun. With ambitions of elevating her social status through marriage to him, Seong Hee-joo finally meets Lee An-daegun after persistent efforts and proposes marriage. The unexpected proposal leaves viewers curious about Lee An-daegun's response.

Seong Hee-joo's relentless efforts to win Lee An-daegun's heart and achieve marriage are on full display. She follows him everywhere, from busy roads to movie theaters and horse riding arenas, showering him with heart gestures and loving glances, bringing smiles to viewers' faces.

Lee An-daegun, however, seems unimpressed by Seong Hee-joo's actions, which appear to be coincidences, as she shows up in both public and private settings. This hints at a challenging proposal journey ahead. Will Seong Hee-joo's determination to break through Lee An-daegun's defenses lead to a successful proposal? The anticipation builds.

'21st Century Grand Duchess' Episode 2 airs tonight (11th) at 9:40 PM.
